Upgrade our Cray TDS from 20.11.7 to 20.11.8, without making any changes to the configuration but am not now seeing job start to run, whilst seeing messages in the slurmd log akin to these four
Submitted federated JobId=67122494 to tdsname(self) _slurm_rpc_submit_batch_job: JobId=67122494 InitPrio=0 usec=8208 sched: schedule() returning, federation siblings not synced yet sched/backfill: _attempt_backfill: returning, federation siblings not synced yet none of which were in evidence prior to the upgrade. Didn't see anything in the 20.11.8 changes that suggested anything to do with "federation" had been introduced, though yet to trawl through the code. Anyone seen similar?
